TLDR

Scammers use AI to impersonate doctors, promoting dubious health products online, undermining trust and potentially endangering patients. Despite warnings, the problem persists as AI tools become more sophisticated.

Scammers are creating fraudulent AI avatars of real medical professionals, using them to endorse unproven health products. This unethical deception undermines trust in experts and promotes dangerous medical disinformation to a global audience.
